Node v4.0.0

The io.js fork and subsequent merge back into Node.js, including the birth of the Node Foundation, has been one of the best examples of the power of open source I have ever seen in action.

The situation went from bad, to worse, to the best possible outcome, and that's remarkable to say the least.

Congratulations to everyone involved and thank you for the hard work.

This is great news. I'm especially excited about the new ECMA6 features (arrows, etc.)

Can't wait to start using ECMA6 natively

Node on Docker Hub needs a new tag.

What happened with the version numbers? I could have sworn Node was on v0.10 just a couple of months back?

Hoping all the main distros include this release as soon as possible in their main repos.
